<div itemprop="description">It is with deep sadness that we announce John Rathje, known to his family and friends as Jack, passed away on Saturday July 18, 2015 at the Bow View Manor in Calgary, Alberta, at age 86. Jack was born on November 11, 1928. He was born and schooled in Lacombe, Alberta. Following graduation, Jack trained to be a chartered accountant. He spent his early life working with different accounting firms in such places as Whitehorse, Edmonton, and Toronto. Then in the 1960s the computer industry evolved, and so did Jack. He worked as a computer analyst in Calgary until his retirement. Following retirement, Jack and his wife Mary relocated to Kelowna, British Columbia. Mary predeceased Jack in 2003, and he returned to Calgary in 2008. He suffered a stroke in 2012, and lived at Bow View Manor until his passing. Jack is survived by his two brothers, Donald (Ruth) and Chris (Linda) Rathje, along with nieces and nephews; and was predeceased by his sister Evelyn Romaniuk. <br />A Graveside Service will take place at Eden Brook Memorial Gardens in Calgary on Saturday, July 25, 2015 at 1:00 pm. <br /></div>
